Timmothy Pitzen was last seen in 2011 with his mother, who then killed herself.
On May 11, 2011, Amy Fry-Pitzen checked her son out of school in Aurora, Illinois, and the pair spent the next two days driving through multiple states on vacation. His father Jim Pitzen reported them missing.
Timmothy was last seen in surveillance video checking out of a water park in Wisconsin on May 13, 2011. The next day, his mother was found dead in a motel room in Rockford, Illinois. Investigators said she had killed herself, and left a note stating that Timmothy was safe — but he would never be found.Family members said in the years that followed that Fry-Pitzen had a history of depression, and her marriage was failing. Jacobs added that they did not believe she would have hurt her child.
"She just wouldn’t have," Jacobs said in the NCMEC video."She had nothing but kindness and consideration for other people in her life."
